    Great date movie. Arnold shows a soft side of the action hero, Jamie Lee should keep those legs insured, and Tom Arnold is a hoot.

    This is my wife of 31 years & my favorite movie of all time. It has the action, suspense, & enough shooting to keep my interest, while stirring my wife's romantic interests! For those of us who lead somewhat mundane lives, it's just the spark to ignite our imaginations while promoting a faithful marriage relationship.

    This is a very entertaining spy movie. I was entertained during the whole movie. I have watched this many times since it has come out and it is still good every time. A great cast combination for this movie. And to see Eliza Dushku in this as a teenager to come as far as she has come now. This was one of her first movies and a great one to be in. I definitely recommend this movie if you like Spy movies with action, comedy, and did I say action. A great movie, check it out when you get the chance.
